Well - sort of! Broke down an bought a cheap used riding lawn mower. It's a J..JJ...John DDD..eere. Wish it wasn't green but it was all I could afford ($200)! Guess I'll just have to mow at night and keep the shed doors closed so no one finds out ..... 8^)

Well: like they say! Nothing runs like a Deere. Nothing lies like a John.

Enjoy it, either way.

Galen, You'll get no beef from me. Last sping the local fire dept was getting rid of their lawn mower, a jd 140, 1968 vintage. Well the assistant chief is a friend and he called me at work, and to make a long story short, i bought it sight unseen for 300 bucks. I'm happy as a clam, Put a plug in it and a new belt and been cutting good eversince. I don't care what color they are as long as they can get the job done. My 2 cents. PUTTER

That's OK, we'll forgive you. Don't worry about people seeing you on a green machine, it will just blend in with the green grass and no one will ever see it. That's why JD painted em green in the first place, so they could hide in the grass and watch the real tractors get the work done.

If y'all don't like green ,then don't buy green.Thats why there are other makes,so you will have a choice. So stop crying. I would not kick a dead hog in the a$$ for something red.

OK, well, I think someone needs to grow up. They are tractors, not life and death. The guy was making a joke. You are spazzing out over a joke...about a lawn mower.
